This past May, Acumen and Dow Chemical partnered to hold the first summit of corporations and Acumen social enterprises in Nairobi, Kenya. This short video shares the highlights and some of the key lessons learned about how corporations can work with social enterprises to better serve low-income markets and identify new business opportunities.
This event was groundbreaking for Acumen, and I was proud to be able to spearhead it with my counterparts at Dow. I look forward to seeing the lasting impact of the technical assistance support that will come out of this, and to expanding on this initiative with additional corporate partners.
